If your idea of a pub is queueing up, I dunno, like in a methadone clinic, watched over by six bouncers and two policemen for a maximum of two drinks in a kind of binge drinkers' theme park then you need to head for Oldham, where such an establishment was featured in this week's Panorama - The Truth About Happy Hour.
And if you are heading to Oldham you'll be delighted to know that the brilliant walkit.com website has just added it to the walking routes on its growing list of destinations.
It's a site where you type in destination A and destination B and it will show you how to walk between the two with times for fast, medium and slow walkers and show how many calories you'll burn off depending on your speed.
Other cities include Birmingham, Sheffield, Cambridge, Manchester, Leeds, Bolton, Norwich and Glasgow. But it really comes into its own in London, where the execrable Underground rail system increasingly feels like a mobile sanatorium for swine flu victims.
Check out walkit.com - we love it.
